Default Do I need regular re-allignment or camber kit?

I have a 2001 Audi TT Roadster 225HP Quattro with an Eibach pro kit 1.1'' drop all around. I recently noticed some uneven wear to the inside of my rear tires. Can this be fix with a regular allignment or do I need to buy a camber kit. If I do need a camber kit will a 1/2 K-Mac do the job or do I need the full kit? I'm also thinking about throwing on 25mm spacers to the rear, will this also throw off my camber even more?

Default Thanks for the extremely usefull info Steve but...

which kit do you recommend for my setup? The K-Mac 1/2 rear kit or the full rear kit with my 25mm rear spacers to account for?

Default I think...>>

1/2 will be fine but if you want to easily adjust toe and have a little more headroom with adjustments, go with the full kit...I had exactly the same and used the full kit so I could make adjustments easier.
Here's some Kmac adjustment tips:<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1577229.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/tt/msgs/1577229.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default One more question hahahah......

Do you recommend installing the spacers prior to the K-Macs or does it not make a differance? I have a feeling that it does.

Default Makes no difference.....>

for Toe, but I'd put them on first ss there may be a "slight" effect on camber.
